The Interstate Highway System is wonderful, but it enables us to drive from one end of the country to the other without seeing much or meeting hardly anyone. There is a whole world out there, including vast spiritual wastelands – what Glenn Daman refers to as the forgotten – that many Christians are oblivious to. Daman introduces us to this world in an eloquent, compelling, and informative manner. His book is a call for all to read, not just people in rural places. As a boy who grew up in the city but has devoted his life to rural people, my fervent hope is that this call is heeded. How wonderful that The Forgotten Church is printed by Moody Publishers, located in the heart of Chicago. This captures the “let’s band together” spirit that permeates the book.
